Bear in mind that suddenly moving faster may drastically change your combat tactics.

Note that the bonus is not a flat decrease of 0.1 to movement speed; it is rather a 10% decrease.

It allows its wearer to run at a great speed.

Running is an ego found only on the lightning scales unrandart that reduces your movement delay by 10%, rounded up. This speeds up movement by 0.1 for Armataurs or 0.2 for Nagas. This stacks with other speed enhancers, such as Swiftness and haste, and has the advantage of requiring no maintenance to keep active. It was widely considered to be the best boots ego available when it was available for other species.

Cheibriados disapproves of this ego; attempting to use this ego anyway as a Cheibriadite will quickly sap your piety.
